asian arowana tank

It would be happier with a 7x3 foot print

Wider is better. 8*3*30 would be my ideal size, 3ft would be nice but with stand i think it will too too tall. Especially for cleaning n removing fish

I have two asians in 8 foot tanks that both started out in 6 ft 180s. In my humble and honest opinion, a 6 foot tank is not long enough although many keep them in smaller tanks. If you want them to have the room to bolt without smashing lids when they get spooked, and they do, 8 feet is ideal. My gold used to smash the lids when he spooked in the 6 footer and hasn't hit the lids since being in the 8 footer. He spooks occasionally but goes the length of the tank instead of vertical.

One tank is 8x3x24 and the other is 8x2x2.

And to add, I'll be upgrading the 8x2x2 to an 8x3x2 for the red just to give him room to turn. They do not turn on a dime like silver aros do.

Had an RTG in my 300g 8x2.5x2 and it was fine.
